AFAIK GNU Fortran 95 is the only thing going in the direction of a GNU
Fortran 9x compiler (on GNU/Linux). g95 is in the stage of finalizing
the parser. The next stage is converting the internal data structures
to GCC trees, which would necessitate bringing it into our CVS
repository (or else make things very difficult for the developers ;-)
There's no sight of a run-time library for this compiler, though.
Are you sure the Apple guys aren't thinking of the (GPL'd) SGI compiler
(which only works on Itania) ?
Cheers,
